this might get it, but it helps to know the name of the software that the bug is trying to sell you.

restart your computer
tap the F8 key until it asks about safe mode
go into safe mode with networking
be patient, its slow

download rkill, this is an app that will stop trojans and allow your other tools to work  its free, its safe
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/anti-virus/rkill
Run rkill, a command prompt appears and goes away, a log appears, keep running it until this happens.  The trojan will try to block your first attempt in some cases.

download malwarebytes, its free, its safe

install, update, let it run a full scan
save the log
look at the log
see if it has infections and see if they were removed

run a full scan with your antivirus
let it delete all it finds
or use this online scanner. its free, its safe.  download the packet and run it

restart


hope this helps
